I started blogging about 3 weeks ago because I had a friend show me Her account on PayPal it was about $400. I asked how She did it, She showed me Her Laptop and Her Blogs. Anyway; I have about $35 right now just starting out but its the first time I ever made anything that did not require a job. I have learned a good Blog makes about $2000 a month, a great one can make $10,000.

I am learning real fast and I am proud of my blogs so I like to give everyone a chance to view them plus couple of friends Blogs I found on my journey.

How on earth do you get money from blogspot? I had no idea...
Samantha H. Sep 11, 2008, 4:50pm EDT

what?! i'm with lacey and samantha --- how do make money? i've been blogging for years and nothing!

You would make money if your page had ads & affiliate links on your blog I think Robert's referring to ads & affiliate links on the blog page. I read an article in USA today on that, here is the link

How do you get started?
Trish A. Sep 11, 2008, 5:41pm EDT
My husband has a blog, I'll share this with him.

I think a lot of it is using the blog to earn money. Some people use their blogs to help earn referrals from sites, some use them to make money through advertising (using things like Google AdSense.) There are a number of ways to make money through blogging. I think there are even a few sites that pay you to blog (only if you update regularly and have a decent amount of good content.) I have a few blogs about various things myself, but have yet to put the effort into making them make money. =)

Good luck! =)

You get paid by signing up to add sense it is part of Google and others that pay for traffic and sign ups. When the sign ups are verified you get a e-mail that tells you you that a deposit was made to your Paypal account. At the end of the month you get paid for traffic.
Robert S. Sep 11, 2008, 10:04pm EDT
Ya, also I forgot the goal it to write adds that create traffic to Web sites, a few a day once you have a big following you get an established blog. Now you get big bucks but this takes time nothing in life is easy and free.
